The 84th Annual Christmas Parade Tradition in Hollywood

On the first Sunday after Thanksgiving, residents gather on Hollywood Blvd ever year to start the Christmas Season with the Annual Hollywood Christmas Parade.

This year, the grand marshall is the Las Vegas magician’s Penn & Teller and there was lots of crowd interactions with one of the hosts, Montel Williams as they performed Christmas themed tricks, like the one below.

Public officials and celebrities alike rode in cars down the boulevard, as giant balloons of famous characters had residents cheering for their favorites.

The rebroadcast of the 84th Annual Christmas parade will play on Dec. 11 at 8 p.m on the CW channel.  Check your local cable provider for more information.
